Women’s Current Bible Studies

Bible Studies are offered on Monday and Tuesday mornings, Tuesday nights and Wednesday nights. These studies are designed to give us a strong foundation in the Word of God and encourage a habit of consistent time in prayer which equips us for service and evangelism. Childcare is available during some of these times and you do not have to be a member of the church to attend these studies.

Monday Morning

Estherby Beth Moore

The Old Testament story of Esther is a profile in courage and contains many modern parallels for today’s overloaded and stressed woman. Esther, while a queen, lived as an outsider in a hostile environment. Women will learn strong lessons of faith, providence, and hope to equip them to live courageously “for such a time as this.”

Tuesday Morning

Ten Women of the Bible
by Max Lucado

As we study the lives of the women in the Bible, we find important truths that God wants us to grasp. They lived in a different world than our own, but we find ourselves facing the same issues they faced. Yet even more, these women show us there is a God who sees us where we are and loves us for who we are. He is the one who hovers over all the pages of the Bible, shaping lives, rescuing hearts, healing sicknesses, raising what was dead to life, and assigning high callings to those who choose to follow him and have faith in him.

Tuesday Night

God of Creationby Jen Wilkin

It all began with the Word. The opening chapters of Genesis teach us fundamental truths about God. We watch Him bring light after darkness, order after chaos, and rest after toil—all through the power of His Word. Over 10 sessions of verse-by-verse study, dive into Genesis 1-11 by following three critical stages of understanding: comprehension, interpretation, and application. Revisit familiar stories and historical figures, challenge your basic knowledge, and discover deeper meanings in the text. As God reveals Himself through Scripture, we can only begin to understand ourselves when we first glimpse the character, attributes, and promises of our Creator.

Begins January 15, 20196:30pm-8:30pm in Bldg. A-106
Cost of Book $13NO Childcare.

Wednesday Night

The Seven Churches
by Linda Warne

The book of Revelation begins by addressing the spiritual condition of seven churches in Asia Minor. In this overview we’ll take a look at each church; its culture, its weaknesses- what it lacked- its strengths- what it was doing right and the promise from the Lord Jesus Christ, to “him who overcomes.”

If you’ve lost a spouse, child, family member, or friend, you’ve probably found there are not many people who understand the deep hurt you feel. GriefShare is a friendly, caring group of people who will walk alongside you through one of life’s most difficult experiences. Many GriefShare alumni tell us the program helped them move from deep grief to peace and a sense of joy again. If this is a need in your life or if you know someone who is walking through grief, please encourage them to come and join us! You don’t have to go through the grieving process alone. Find help in your journey from mourning to Joy!

This exciting class offers care and support for all single mom’s. Join us each week as we study God’s Word and enjoy the friendships of other single mom’s!

It’s Not Supposed To Be This Way
by Lysa Terkeurst

What went wrong? Why did God let this happen?

Reality often ends up so very far from the life we long for, doesn’t it? Bible teacher Lysa TerKeurst deeply understands daily disappointments and life-altering loss. By walking through her own valley, she’s discovered that in God we can find unexpected strength as we wrestle well between our faith and feelings.

Thursday Morning

MOM TO MOMA biblical based parenting program designed around the Titus 2;4 concept of older women teaching and encouraging younger women. This curriculum is designed to take a close look at what God’s Word has to say about our mission as moms & wives and what that looks like for 21st century women. As we explore God’s Word together, we will gain godly mom-confidence in a confused world, learn to create contagious Christian community in a chaotic culture, and grow in our ability to build Christ-like character in our kids.
